Muscat also produces easily spotted, pungently aromatic wine, this time smelling floral and of grapes (surprisingly enough the only variety to do so). There are many varieties within the Muscat family, producing white, yellow, pink, red, brown and even black grapes.

Fresh, dry examples are also made in Alsace (the finest again), northern Italy, Germany, eastern Europe and parts of the New World.
